None of these really “come from” the NCR TMK, but they reported some, and as the link shows the one listed came from an extensive 2002 LA Times poll.
Doing more of a search i found that while “overall, 30% of priests described themselves as liberal on religious and moral issues, while 28% described themselves as conservative and 37% as moderate.
Among younger priests, however, nearly four in 10 described themselves as conservative, and three-fourths said they were more religiously orthodox than their older counterparts.” (http://articles.latimes.com/print/2002/oct/21/local/me-priest21)
And which new info (to me) has been included.
And in reality these and other like stats came from more than one source, and every survey i have found reported similar (and its safe to say the evangelicals are hated at least s much by the MSM).
It is impossible to be Catholic and be pro-abortion. It is impossible to be Catholic and be for homosexual “marriage”. So these “liberal” priests can be as liberal as they feel like being, but there is no compromising on these two moral teachings of the Bible and it’s been that way for 2,000 years. If some guy is that liberal he needs to stay away from the seminary. Alot of them lie about their beliefs in order to become priests and they are the ones that eventually end up giving the Church a black eye. There are plenty of liberal demoninations out there that will accept these type of people. The Episcopal Church comes to mind. From women “priests” to homosexual “priests”, to really having no stance on the murder of the unborn, these liberal men will feel right at home in the Episcopal Church, and many more protestant faiths.
